I've had one reply from the support ninjas. It didn't help (I have, however, solved the problem - so read on!) but it might help you:
Quote:
- First, recycle the power on your wireless router, then try synching again. As basic as it sounds, this has been the #1 culprit with Bonjour synching issues.
- Reset synching on the desktop by going into the Sync pane of the Preferences menu, setting the sync method to "Nothing", then set it back to Bonjour.
- If you're running Tiger, try turning off the firewall, then sync OmniFocus. If that worked, I'll send you detailed instructions on how to sync with the firewall on; for now, we just want to get you up and running.
- If you're running Leopard, go into System Preferences>Security>Firewall, and make sure it's either set to allow all incoming connections, or add OmniFocus to the list of applications allowed access.
- On your desktop's network settings, make sure there aren't any proxy servers set up.
- Turn your iPhone off and back on.
- Try setting up and ad-hoc network for synching:

As I said, none of this helped me - but I did get sync working very simply by using the WebDAV option which I was recommended by someone on Twitter (see
http://twitter.com/deviantintegral/status/2317380340). I'd never used WebDAV before, but my brilliant web host (
http://www.nethosted.co.uk) set it up pretty much automatically via the CPanel control panel software. Both Mac and iPhone sync to it, and it works perfectly - straight out of the box.
There does seem to be some kind of issue here with syncing via Bonjour and the 3GS (although one guy on Twitter said he had it working).
